Is there any other fix except xp compatibility issue? Is it recommended to install this new version for win7 users?

I went ahead and got the 3.2 on win 7 64bit and it runs fine, from what I read they'll be doing the same 'fix' for all future releases as well, but unless you use xp it really should affect anything lol (though I could be wrong I don't think I am or I wouldn't be posting :D )

There is not any other fix apart the xp compatibility. If we don't change something important all other versions should stay compatibile with all major win systems (xp, vista, win 7, win8)

I think I found the error.
You can solve the issue by yourself:
-go to your factorio-folder
- go to data/base/campaigns/beta/level-02
- open the control.lua
- at row 177 change "target=game.player" into "target=game.player.character"

It should work then

In 177 row is already "target=game.player.character"

I know what is probably the problem. We made migration to reload new version of the script.
(The script from the campaign gets copied to the save once you start the game and stays there.)
That migration works just once (once you get 0.3.x version), but we repaired that error in 0.3.1, this means that if you saved the game in 0.3.0 version, and then reloaded in 0.3.1-2 the new version of the script wasn't reloaded (overwriten) from the campaign directory.

The solution is to repair the error directly in the save (saves/<your save game>/control.lua>

This is our mistake ofcourse (we should have made another migration for 0.3.1 that would reload the script again, I just forgot to do it).
